Many bloggers exist to serve as a counterpoint to the “mainstream media.” It has always surprised me how few of them take advantage of the opportunity to directly ask questions of the reporters and pundits they criticize.

The Washington Post frequently has reporters, commentators, and newsmakers taking questions online. Today the Virginian-Pilot will have General Assembly reporters Warren Fiske and Christina Nuckols taking questions at noon.

For once, I’m on the road and will miss the festivities. Wonder if anyone will ask about the “crack” bill?
